I'm afraid that the space between the bullet and the content is completely controlled by the browser and there's nothing you can do to change it. The amount of space isn't defined in the specs so its up to the UA to decide which accounts for the differences.

You will have to add some padding to the inner element as you suggested which I know is a bit of a pain.
